ABSTRACT Background and Objectives Subarachnoid fibrosis is the key pathology of hydrocephalus, but its underlying mechanisms remains poorly understood. In the present study, we aim to verify the hypothesis that neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs), released by neutrophils infiltrated into the subarachnoid space following hemorrhage and infection ...

Endoscopic third ventriculostomy (ETV) is a relatively safe procedure. However, postoperative acute respiratory failure may be fatal. The authors report an 8-month-old patient with obstructive hydrocephalus secondary to posterior fossa cyst, and Chiari ...

Introduction: Pediatric hydrocephalus is highly prevalent and therefore a major neurosurgical problem in Africa. In addition to ventriculoperitoneal shunts, which have high cost and potential complications, endoscopic third ventriculostomy is becoming an

Survivorship of Individuals With Double Heterozygosity for Achondroplasia and Type 2 Collagenopathy
ABSTRACT Historically, double heterozygosity, or a diagnosis of two separate, dominant genetic conditions, was often thought to be lethal in individuals with autosomal dominant skeletal dysplasias. In previously published studies of individuals with dual dysplasia diagnoses of achondroplasia and type 2 collagenopathy, infants died of respiratory ...

Endoscopic third ventriculostomy [PDF]
Dear Editor Editor, I read the recent publication on endoscopic third ventriculostomy (EVT) by Marton et al. with a great interest [1]. Marton et al. concluded that “ETV secondary to shunt malfunction in pediatric patients has a success rate of 64%. As it is a safe and rapid treatment option even in emergency conditions, it is worth performing this ...

ABSTRACT Premature infants are at a heightened risk of intracerebral or intraventricular hemorrhages (IVH), which often lead to posthaemorrhagic hydrocephalus and necessitate the placement of a ventriculoperitoneal (VP) shunt. Here, we present a case involving suspected ICH, which led to multiloculated hydrocephalus, recurrent ventriculitis, and ...

Our study developed and validated an artificial intelligence (AI) model that integrates multimodal MRIs and clinical data to predict CSF diversion needs. The AI model was trained in a developmental cohort including 116 neonates with suspicion of raised intracranial pressure (ICP) and then validated in an external validation cohort consisting of 21 ...
